Mimmo Villari is 29 years old in 1975, lives in Calabria, has a dusty guitar in the attic and the sacred fire of music that once burned his stomach is now turning into embers. In that period the first experiences of pirate radio arose in Italy. Mimmo is thrilled by the rumors about it and wastes no time: he builds himself an FM transmitter and thus sets up Radio Perla del Tirreno, the first pirate radio station in Bagnara Calabra. The voices of the radio reflect on politics, philosophy, civic education, creating a discourse that is the portrait of a society and an era.
